Kirby Smart will walk onto the practice field Tuesday with a bit more concern than any other day of spring practice. Understandably, Georgia players might be a bit lethargic and that’s a mood echoed across the university’s campus.
After Georgia’s season ended on Jan. 1, a new one started. There were plenty of days in the weight room and some of the toughest days of a new campaign have already passed. An opportunity for a one-week escape came which likely meant beach trips, plenty of tasty food and a few hours of lounging for many.
“You do all of that build-up to get ready, then you have a week off and have to get back to practice,” said Smart, who is entering his fourth spring practice as the Bulldogs’ head coach.
